Hard Question - How much should I rely on Copilot as a beginner?

I understand how powerful and how essential it is to use AI-assisted workflows today if you want to keep up with the pace of things. Productivity is easily 10x or more.

But as a beginner who is only just learning python, I am worried that too much reliance on these tools too soon will make me a much worse programmer. I'm worried my ideas and problem-solving skills will not be as good.

How do you guys think about this? How should I approach using coding copilots as a new dev?
